MicroGanzaaa . . . One Of The Smallest Overruns Ever!!! . . . TNT-15 With Jungle Cerakote Camo !!! . . . Sunday February 6, 2022 . . . 9:00 pm Eastern

Hundreds of full bottles just makes you a collector. It's the empties you have to dispose of to keep up appearances. 🙈

I see that you have, obviously, tapped into the Busse shop cameras, just like JohnTheTexican!!!

Busted!!!!

Oh, and on a side-note, just so you know, those hundreds of bottles of scotch and bourbon that you see on my desk and scattered throughout the shop, are filled with water!!!! Nobody could possibly drink that much booze!!! :)

So, let's drink!!!. . . . errrr. . .water! Let's drink water!

On a side note: A shop-camera live-feed of one of your milling machines would be pretty sweet, I for one would love the chance to tune in to watch bars of INFI getting turned into sweet, Busse knives.
 
I've already got a stack of future users including a TNT-15 but this combo is even more tempting than the multicam black.

It'll fit right in with these:

Spent all my dough on SYKCO and ELMAX slicers! (And a few certified, pre-owned slabs of INFI) Gonna have to miss the bus on this one!

For whatever it's worth to anyone, I think the CBT is cool as all get-out (even if it doesn't really make much difference) and the tiger stripe cerakote is that much cooler!
 
I'm new to fixed blades (I've been collecting folders for more than a decade) and extremely new to Busse's, Swamps, & Scrapyards because now I just started vanlife and fixed blades are needed... and for years I've heard Busse's are the knives that I need to buy. I just bought a Jackmandu last week to be my user and abuser.
Hopefully I send the 2 emails fast enough tonight to get in on one of these TNT-15's.

It’s a great point on the overrun. This pattern was issued to the troops in Vietnam. Maybe a small group headed back with Rambo on a Huey and needed matching blades. Jerry heard “chopper full” of guys and made 40 pieces….

Thanks for the history on this pattern, I had no idea being a younger guy (Vietnam was my dad's time) where this pattern traced it's roots. It does appear though from this article I found, which appears to be a good source for knowledge, that in fact this pattern was never actually issued (actually Olive Drab was issued) but put into service voluntarily in the high speed/low drag circles like the Navy SEAL's and Marines.

When it comes to military camouflage, the tiger stripe camo pattern has evolved over the years even though it was never actually "official".

Anybody here bother trying for these TNT'S? I suspect there's still quite a few stealthy HOG's that went in for them and didn't bother posting here.... until they score!

I gave it a shot

Plans for processing a rabbit with it if you score, lol?

That would be EPIC!

I read a while back that in the time of the Samurai they used swords for everything, it wasn't until after that era that there became a focus on making knives specific to the kitchen!

YES, I plan on making a sword/rabbit video, no matter how absurd. You never know what kind of survival situation may arise
 
Haven't bought a Busse in a while so I gave it a shot and scored! Any rumors on how many of these were released?

Gonna use it regardless, working on getting a sheath heading this way.

I really love the TNT-15. Hoping for a -19 or -24. Best of luck everybody going for one. You will love it!

Agreed. I've been waiting on a longer sword from Busse for a few years now. The longest I have is 17", in the AK-47 and Waki. Waki may be 16"... but best I remember, it is 17". A TNT-24 would be perfection.
